Shopaholism: Do You Have a Problem?

Experts say you have an excessive shopping problem when you get a rush or high after shopping, you spend money you don't have, and do things like hide your packages from your significant other.

Novar suggests therapy is one way to treat the disorder. There are also several books out on the subject. You can even attend 12-step meetings, as shopaholism is similar to other addictions like alcoholism.

"It takes work, it takes commitment, and it takes the intention to really stop doing it. But it can be done," Novar said.
